Improving trunk rotation.
Figure 1 Kneeling trunk rotation (a) start position (b) final position. Sports such as tennis, golf, baseball, and hockey each involve a tremendous amount of trunk rotation. It is not just striking sports, but also throwing, kicking, running, swimming, skiing, etcwhichall require yourbody to rotate throughyour core. In order to transmit forces from your bigger, stronger leg muscles to your arms...
متن کاملTrunk function in hemiplegic wheelchair users when using wheelchair cushions
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate adapting wheelchair cushions to hemiplegic individuals based on trunk function and a single-leg driving motion. [Subjects and Methods] Subjects were 18 hemiplegic adults who were able to use and sit up in a wheelchair. Subjects were grouped into Able and Unable groups according to the Functional Assessment for Control of the Trunk (FACT). T...
متن کاملActivation of selected trunk muscles during symmetric functional activities in poststroke hemiparetic and hemiplegic patients.
OBJECTIVE To compare the EMG activity between the recti abdominii muscles and between the lumbar erector spinae muscles in hemiparetic and hemiplegic patients during functional symmetric trunk movements and to compare patients' EMG activity profiles with those of healthy controls. METHODS EMG activity from the selected muscles was recorded during three symmetric and time controlled trunk exer...
متن کاملEffects of Sling Exercise Therapy on Trunk Muscle Activation and Balance in Chronic Hemiplegic Patients
Weakening of trunk muscles in stroke patients hinders functional ability, safety and balance. To confirm whether strengthening trunk muscles could facilitate rehabilitation of stroke patients, we investigated the effectiveness of sling exercise therapy (SET) using closed kinetic chain exercises to activate trunk muscles and improve balance in stroke patients. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty strok...
متن کاملTrunk control test as a functional predictor in stroke patients.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate prospectively the Trunk Control Test (TCT) correlation at admission to rehabilitation with length of stay, functional independence measure (FIM), gait velocity, walking distance and balance measured at discharge in 28 hemiparetic patients. FIM and TCT were registered on admission. Outcome measures at discharge were: FIM, gait velocity, walking distance ...
